21.2 General Setup

21.2.1 General Setup and System Name
General Setup contains administrative and system-related information. System Name is for
identification purposes. However, because some ISPs check this name you should enter your
computer's "Computer Name".
•
In Windows 95/98 click Start, Settings, Control Panel, Network. Click the Identification tab,
note the entry for the Computer Name field and enter it as the System Name.
•
In Windows 2000, click Start, Settings, Control Panel and then double-click System. Click the
Network Identification tab and then the Properties button. Note the entry for the Computer
name field and enter it as the System Name.
•
In Windows XP, click Start, My Computer, View system information and then click the
Computer Name tab. Note the entry in the Full computer name field and enter it as the
ZyWALL System Name.
21.2.2 Domain Name
The Domain Name entry is what is propagated to the DHCP clients on the LAN. If you leave this
blank, the domain name obtained by DHCP from the ISP is used. While you must enter the host name
(System Name), the domain name can be assigned from the ZyWALL via DHCP.
Click MAINTENANCE to open the General screen. The screen varies depending upon the device
